- surgeons regularly switch back and forth between surgical stapling/cutting instruments and surgical energy (i.e., RF or ultrasonic) instruments depending upon the particular step in the procedure because different instruments are better adapted for particular tasks.
- the particular sequence in which the stapling/cutting instruments and surgical energy instruments are used can indicate what step of the procedure the surgeon is performing.
- the incisions and closed up and the post operative portion of the procedure begins.
- the surgical hub 5104 can infer that the patient is emerging from the anesthesia based on the ventilator data (i.e. , the patient’s breathing rate begins increasing), for example.

Further, the surgical hub 6, 56 determines 17310b if change in location, position, user inputs, power level, indicate device is in active operation or will be in inactive operation.
- the first surgical device Prior to the activation of a first surgical device, the first surgical device sends a communication to the surgical hub that a potential noise/interference inducing event is about to occur. In response to the communication, the surgical hub changes one or more settings to mitigate the anticipated interference.
- bi-polar and mono-polar ablation systems are used during the same surgical procedure. The activation of the mono-polar system will interfere with the impedance control of the bipolar system. If the bi-polar is already in-cycle and the mono-polar is activated, the surgical hub changes the bi-polar control loop to continue operating in the manner just prior to the activation, rather than prohibiting the combined use of both devices. When the interface stops, the bi-polar goes back to its normal closed loop use.
